This odd but striking geological formation just north of Santa Clarita was a hideout for a notorious 19th-century bandit (Tiburcio Vasquez) and background scenery for numerous western and science fiction films (such as Star Trek).

From 1942 through 1945, thousands of women across Los Angeles County (along with millions across the country) stepped into the industrial roles of men leaving enmasse to fight in Europe and the Pacific.

In honor of "Veterans in the Arts and Humanities Day" on October 29, 2017, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) screened a selection of films made by military veterans in its Veteran’s Make Movies Program. The program offers a series of filmmaking courses that teach veterans how to write, shoot and edit their own short films.
